"Dead" lyrics

"Dead"

I woke up this morning dead
My body fell right through my bed
I prayed to God that I'd made amends
'Cause this was all I had
Now I'm the ghost that haunts your halls
Knocking softly on your walls
Reminding you to make a friend
With the Man that saves your soul

And hear these warnings from the grave
This life you're holding must be saved
There is no peace for my wandering soul
While I wait for someone to lead me home

Silence holds these words I speak
Masking every melody
None can hear the screams I cry
Their poison holds the key
And time has lost its remedy
Now I'm just your memory
And here I'll stay and hope that you will not end up like me

And hear these warnings from the grave
This life you're holding must be saved
There is no peace for my wandering soul
While I wait for someone to lead me home

Hear these warnings from the grave
This life you're holding must be saved
